I could appeal to you by speaking of the severity of the crime or ask you to imagine if it was your mother, your wife or your daughter. Instead I’m going to give you the cold hard facts: W.A.R. data shows that 44% of rape cases in Pakistan are gang-rapes just like this one. 90% of all rape cases involve female victims in Pakistan, and there is a clear 7% yearly rise in the registration of child sex assault cases.
